Motivation gets you started when everyone doubts you.
Discipline keeps you going when things get tough and the “I told you so”s come out.
If you need a support structure to keep you doing what you’re doing, entrepreneurship may not be for you

…… am I the only one picking up that OP is asking if they should bluff?
Just my guess, but I think OP doesn’t have a patent to begin with, they just want to bluff that they do to the manufacturer to prevent stealing of the idea, while probably producing and selling the first round to then pay for the patent…
Either way - save your breath unless you’re going to get it protected by the laws governing where you’re having it manufactured
I bought some ladders off a guy who had a side business renting out empty whiskey barrels to wedding planners so people could take rustic pictures
Fact is, you can rent just about anything - finding the clientele, keeping a steady stream of them, and then delivering upon the rental promise (delivery, set up, take down etc) is a mission and a half.
I guess before I’d even consider offering you any form advice, I’d have to first ask about your goals, the amount of time you’re willing to personally put into the venture, and how much capital you’re willing to risk on said venture….. Clearly defining those things might help you pick a direction
The Founder - I was already deep into business, and on the verge of calling it quits …… That movie hit at the right time to motivate me to stick to my plans
Very very happy I did
